At the heart of this beast is a 347 cubic inch stroker engine, pushing a massive 430 horsepower. Built on a bored .60 over 302 Ford block and outfitted with Air Flow Research aluminum heads, this powerhouse delivers torque and speed at the tap of the throttle. Matched to a C4 3-speed automatic transmission, with a 2700 stall converter and a B&M Quicksilver floor shifter, makes shifting smooth and precise, providing an exhilarating driving experience.

Putting the power to the ground is a 9″ rear end with 3.55 gears and positraction, making sure this hot rod digs in hard off the line. Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes bring modern stopping power, and the Mustang rack and pinion steering make handling feel precise and controlled. Combined with Heidt’s front shocks and Monroe’s rear shocks, this Coupe is not just fast, it’s fully engineered for the road.

The car’s black polished paint gleams with deep, reflective quality, showcasing the sleek, flowing lines that made the 1940 Ford Coupe a design icon. While there are minor stress cracks, typical for a 7-year-old build, the car remains in outstanding condition, ready to be shown or driven with pride.

Other upgrades include a stainless steel exhaust, a 15-gallon stainless gas tank, and a K&N reusable air filter for performance and durability. The car has been well-maintained with recent fluid changes and new spark plugs, ensuring it’s ready for the road. All restoration paperwork is in hand, confirming the high level of detail and care that went into this build.

If you’re after a hot rod that combines vintage looks with modern performance, this custom 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe is a perfect match. The blend of raw power and craftsmanship makes this a true standout – whether you’re tearing up the streets or wowing the crowd at a car show, place your bids and bring this gem home.
